Let me make my cauliflower recipe again to make sure it is ok. I added 4 beaten eggs instead of 2 which make them fall apart.

That sounds like a nice twist to it. You can add some spice or spiced mustard and possibly caramelize some of the onions to go with the grilled peppers and red onion?

You could also sear the chicken and toast the tortilla with a little olive oil first. Sometimes when I am just too tired to shop I'll open the fridge and start with whatever I find. Or order sushi delivery!

I sleep au natural year-round. And usually just a sheet covering my upper body. The blanket is for snuggling in when I get up for a moment and need to warm back up...assuming I don't have someone to snuggle up too!

Ok, so this turned out REALLY good! Except that it was wayyyy too sweet, and that means a lot coming from me. I love sweets but next time I will definitely cut the sugar in half. I wish I read through more reviews; plenty of others also say it was too sweet....

All in all, this was a really simple and easy recipe (the most prep was from skinning the peaches) and would definitely recommend. Not very healthy, I know but ooooooh so yummy

Bring remaining 1/2 cup sugar, peach slices, and lemon juice to a boil over high heat, stirring constantly; pour over batter (do not stir). Sprinkle with cinnamon, if desired.

Bake at 375° for 40 to 45 minutes or until golden brown. Serve cobbler warm or cool.

Honora,

THAT sounds really good! Kinda kills the low carb diet, he he. But you only live once, right?

My Mother made a killer peach cobbler and step Mom does too; so this triggers a little bit of a Pavlovian response for me for sure as well as some fond memories.

As for being too sweet, I think the sweetness might alter with the ripeness of the peaches and the natural sugars perhaps? I agree with fresh over frozen for sure though. Have you tried it with half or all brown sugar? It adds a different flavor with the dark or light brown sugars.

Cobbler and a bit of ice cream is really almost as good as.... Erm, no, scratch that! Ha!

Li'l Red, your recipe sounds very similar to Mom's Cobblers, (Peach, Apricot, Black Berry, etc.) and her's were the absolute best! But it's true, you do need to adjust the sugar to accommodate the ripeness of the fruit. Although, in your case the extra sweetness might have come from you dipping your finger into the mix to taste test! Hmmm?

PS: I've never had skinned peaches, sounds painful! We never even peeled 'em, couldn't tolerate the tortured screams! Sure hope yours are OK! I DO love your Peaches!

Made my favorite recipe. Needed to make rice. I screwed it up again. But this time I figured out why!

I wanted to make 6 cups of rice. I needed to add 32oz of broth to 2 cups of rice. I ended up adding the broth to ... 6 cups of rice! Needless to say, all of the broth was soaked up and the rice began to burn! I recovered what I could. It was very al dente. At least I know why now.

But I sure would love to get there with you sometime, just so I could imagine it later!! The stuff that dreams are made of, don't you know?

Naughty dreams are soo fun! How are you Skeeter? I need to catch up with all my friends I feel so disconnected. Is it raining there yet? I have been reading about all the drought out there. I wish we could mail you half of ours! I need a paddleboard!! I live close to the water and I swear there are days where the streets just will not drain!

No Rain, and that's a good thing this time of year! Rain and ripening fruit don't go well together! We've had a few Thunder storms over the Valley in the last few weeks, which bring lightening strikes and hail. Both Bad news for us too!

But if you could conger up some big big snowstorms over the Sierra this winter you'd have a whole lotof California farmers in love with you! (Of couse, one in particular has been in that condition for years already!)Just hold off on the weather till about mid-November!

I'm getting better and stronger all the time, thanks for asking! Still don't have anywhere near the upper body strength I once had but I'm working on it! Both my surgeon and my oncologist have given me a clean bill of health in the past two weeks, so I'm feeling pretty good about my chances of getting back to normal soon!

Speaking of "upper bodies," yours is looking especially delicious in this new avatar! Sad that it had to be so dastically cropped! Take care sweetheart, Love Ya'!

I Love Macaroons! But then, anything Naked and Raw with Mannda would just have to be Sinfully Delicious! I will be shopping for ingredients tomorrow!

Manda Darling, I Love the "uncropping" you did, of your amazing avatar! Thanks for answering my prayers! I've already sent my Thank You's upstairs! (Not sure if that was appropriate or not.)
